The easy part is now over: the firing. Now the hard part begins. I'd like to think we'll hire a game changer here, but my expectations are set at the "Pittman/Mark Stoops" level.

Remember Stoops got out of coaching because of the early signing day rule. Says recruiting has become too much. I doubt he gets back into coaching.
Someone mentioned no more coaches with names that begin with M, but if we go with coaches with names that end in R (Spurrier, Myer), then it’s Napier. Amirite?

What I can't believe is people are falling for the Bob Stoops thing again as if its a possibility because that gator hater bianchi says he heard he's interested. Its embarrassing and on par with how UTooth always throw that Gruden rumor out there when they are on the hunt.

I bet bianchi is giggling with his ucf homos over it too
So you're saying it might be Gruden?

We don't want Napier. Besides owning a Prius with a Bernie sticker he's a run first guy.

So: yes for

Matt Campbell
Bob Stoops
Dave Aranda
Joe Brady
Cristobal
Fickell

No for:

Mark Stoops
Vance Joseph
Lane Train
Tom Herman
Don't understand the interest in Matt Campbell. His six years at Iowa State look exactly like Dan
3-9
8-5
8-5
9-3
7-6
6-5
I don't get it.

straight fuchsing garbage.

Same people list him and the endless plethora of interchangeable ball control defensive coordinators floating around from Aranda to Fleck.

We need a CEO-HC whose schemes are attractive to 5* QB recruits along with 5* WRs, & 5* TEs. Fortify the UF staff with a vibrant Strength Coach, someone with muscle-kinesthetics knowledge (or at least an assistant so incline) -- to guard against injury, thus keeping enthusiasm at
full bore.

Anyway. this time is a crossroads for our UF program ... no more choosing an HC with staff great at looking forward to vacations. Get a reasonably young HC, who can get us to winning right away, facile at upsetting opponents by being the old "Fighting Gators".
Hire with the plan for an entire hard-driving staff.

Just checked Napier's record. Same number of trophies as Dan. Tough first season which is excusable, lost to Ap St. twice in 19, lost to Coastal Carolina in 20. On a run this year, but still looking for first title. No thanks.

Ok. You guys were right on Mullen so curious your thoughts. I feel like Bob been away for too long but interesting...How do you feel about Napier? I wasn’t really paying attention when corndogs were discussing (even though he is in their backyard) but would we be ok with this hire?
LOL. WHY DO YOU GUYS ALL LOVE THE SAME FUCHSING GUY? Will you be surprised when he does the SAME FUCHSING THING as the last two guys? He is LITERALLY a McElwain protege, who already failed catastrophically as an OC (at Clemson) and is more run run run punt than either McElwain or Mullinz?

Are you not capable of thinking on your own and just listen to the same fuchsing people in the media who parrot the same **** about Mullinz and Matt fuchsing Campbell? Or Fuentes for that matter. Same damn boring ass guys.

there is no such thing. No one but elite RBs would go to Saban until he flushed Butterteeth and Nuss.

We need an OC but not a fuchsing garbage OC like the last two we hired. We need someone who attacks attacks attacks and would be attractive to the talent in Florida. Right now it seems that only FSU has managed to land one.
